Aktualni prvak Real Madrid je v 3. krogu Lige prvakov na domačem Santiago Bernabéuu gostil Tottenham in iztržil točko (1:1). Gostje so povedli v 28. minuti z avtogolom Raphaëla Varaneja, v 43. pa je z bele točke za izenačenje poskrbel Cristiano Ronaldo.
Portugalski napadalec, ki s 110. goli zaseda vrh lestvice najboljših strelcev v zgodovini tekmovanja, je v svoji karieri osvojil štiri naslove Lige prvakov. Prvič se je zmage veselil z Manchester Unitedom (2008), trikrat pa je bil uspešen z Real Madridom (2014, 2016, 2017).
Pred tekmo s Tottenhamom je tako kot že večkrat doslej izkazal veliko naklonjenost temu tekmovanju. Ronaldo je ponosno prepeval uradno himno Lige prvakov, kot da bi šlo za reprezentančno akcijo. "Ali Ronaldo misli, da je pesem Lige prvakov njegova himna?" je zapisal nek uporabnik Twitterja.
